Any one who's played the Denver Roller Dolls at home, knows what a large fan base they have, and I'm sure their fans are not board. Even DRDs in town rivals...
I second that. Carnivorous Licks ^V^ PR Director / Training Staff Gold Coast Derby Grrls goldcoastderbygrrls@... Sent on the Sprint� Now Network from...
Very true. Though I'll take the six pages if it means I don't have to see it anymore. The fan in me is bored by it too. Oly was very impressive. Sloppatola ...
The thing that I don't like is that A it sucks to what watch ,and B all this is gonna do is make another 6 page amendment to the WFTDA rule set , so while it...
We are all taught to and told by the refs to "keep a pack". Surprised by the tactic they were probably confused and did the "right thing" in trying to keep...
I was thinking that the whole time!! Why aren't they just speeding up past the stopped skaters and making them get called for breaking the pack?? Carnivorous...
Please pass out this info to your league. THANK YOU, ~Hell Kat Thrasher Shore Points Roller Derby NJ Boardwalk Brawlers Attention B/C skaters... we want you!!!...
Oly won the whole thing with super fast jammers. They just have mega endurance. At the tourney the problem with the strategy was addressed a few ways. Firstly...
we do one we call Look up, Get up, Catch up... We have 3 girls go at a time. They start out on their bellies, back or butt, facing down, backwards, ect....
i think a big point has been missed, in which i like about what denver did , is that it was a multi bout weekend , if they could progress to the next round by...
we've been playing a 'wolves and gazelles' type game with my new league for the last couple of months and it has totally changed the way we play. Prior to...
Please bear with me, as I'm trying to visualize this. I work third shift and this was my weekend on so unfortunately I didn't get to see any of the bouts this...
Its pretty hard to initiate a block from a strict standstill, you at least have to take a step, which makes it legal. The most effective use of this strategy...
I always thought that you couldn't block from a standstill. It was my impression you had to be 'stepping or skating' in order to block. 5.1.3 in WFTDA 4.0...
I love the slowing strategy but I always thought you had to maintain a forward motion to block. They did have a rules clarification regarding Denver's...
Oh, I see what you mean now about whole teams not starting on the whistle (just saw it happen in the Rocky Mountain/Texas game). Yeah that kinda sucks. I...
Hi We do a relay. With the girls in groups of all different skill levels they have to perform a series of falls at certain places marked by cones. One knee,...
Hello All!! I have a group of freshies as well as vets that have a helluva time catching back up with the pack after being hit OOB, falling, etc. Other than...
It does have a strong danger factor to it. Especially if your not expecting a team to do it. In regards to "breaking the pack". If one team stays put and the...
This whole discussion on stopping also happened after ECE, although its not that entertaining, it can be easily countered. The only one that concerns me is...
Hey, in response to the last post, just wanted to point out that blocking a reverse skating player will not incur a penalty on that player because she did not...
I agree with what your saying slop but it brings more strategy to the game, while it is within the rules to counterclock wise skate, a way to counter act that...
I would check in with some certified Refs as I am pretty sure there are rules to govern the two scenarios you mentioned at the end there, mostly in regards to...
I never said it was "unfair". If fact it would be unfair to say so. ;) In theory I agree with you but when I see people in any sport "flop" (fake illegal...
I would love some strategy ideas as well. I was literally about to post on this subject. I would like to put together a bunch of different ideas that teams...
Well you're dealing with a few things here...stopping is legal on the track, however blocking whilst stationary is not. Skating clockwise is legal, but again,...
I've been dealing with questions from our girls about these strategies that some teams use involving stopping and even moving backwards, clockwise, on the...
